The Korena take

The CTM-200R is a 200W all-valve bass amp rack head with a three-band EQ and Shape button for its listed control set. Four KT88s handle the power section, joined by two 12AX7s, two 12AU7s, and one ECC99 in the preamp. Its black 2 mm mild-steel chassis has spot-welded supports and is hand-finished with a powder coating. It supports minimum impedances of 2, 4, or 8 ohms and weighs 48.5.
